AI Read_012 - The Subprime AI Crisis Oct 10, 2024

What do numerous over-hyped product launches, massively subsidized compute, over extended investment, lack of customer adoption, unwillingness to pay extra, enormous and increasing costs, and total dependence on a few massive players have in common?

The big tech Ai industry!

Today we dive into a fantastic breakdown of the state of the ai market, and the potentially dismal financial forecast for the poster child of Ai success, OpenAi. Is there really a massive market here that supports 100 billion dollar investments ongoing? Or is it all smoke and mirrors with a very uncertain future.

Ai_033 - Fear to Freedom: The Optimistic Case for AI [The Staying Free Podcast] Aug 23, 2024

"When you introduce 2 million, 10 million "developers" that were never developers into an ecosystem that's used to having closed platforms and silos and stuff, what do those 10 million motivated people build? They're more likely to build the solution that they always wanted and that they build something that gets around these silos.
One of the most important things that's going on right now is the shift from closed platforms to open protocols. The more that all of that stuff is open, the more the walls, the potential barriers that appear to lock people into these platforms will just kind of start to fall away.
On a long enough timeline, open just wins."
- Guy Swann

In a recent episode of The Staying Free Podcast, I had a valuable conversation with my friend and colleague Jonny, also known as jonnyhodl. We delved into the complex relationship between artificial intelligence and individual sovereignty, challenging the conventional narratives that often depict AI as a threat to freedom.
We explored the open versus closed system debate, questioning whether decentralization can truly safeguard our liberties in an age of intelligent machines. The discussion also touched on crucial issues like privacy, autonomy, and human agency, encouraging people to rethink their understanding of AI. Could AI be a tool for liberation, or are we on the brink of a new form of control?
This was a conversation worth sharing, as it offers deep insights into the potential of AI to either enhance or erode our freedoms.

Ai Read_011 - The AGI Manhattan Project Jul 25, 2024

"Do we need an AGI Manhattan Project? Slowly at first, then all at once, it will become clear: this is happening, things are going to get wild, this is the most important challenge for the national security of the United States since the invention of the atomic bomb. In one form or another, the national security state will get very heavily involved. The Project will be the necessary, indeed the only plausible, response." ~ Leopold

Will the race for AGI lead to a Manhattan Project-like initiative, and how might this reshape the global order? Today we diver into the final read of "Situational Awareness: The Decade Ahead" on the inevitability of the race to AGI and superintelligence and what it will mean for the free world, the economy, and the future of humanity. Don't miss this epic conclusion.

"Our economic systems were not built for a world driven by technology where prices keep falling. They were built for a pre-technology era when labour and capital were inextricably linked, an era that counted on growth and inflation, an era where we made money from scarcity and inefficiency. That era is over."

Ai_027 - Is AI Breaking the Web? Jun 06, 2024

A trend I've noticed with Ai, is that it has shifted itself into the middleman position between everyone and the normal surfing of the web. While it may save the user time, could this be disrupting the very traffic that monetizes content on the internet? With this fundamental change in the monetization paradigm, a huge shift is coming to the web. What will it look like, and how should we prepare? Tune in to find out.

Ai_026 - The Scam of Open AI May 31, 2024

A very unique dynamic occurs with generative AI. LLM companies are scraping the internet for millions of works belonging to other people, photos, videos and film, forum posts, tutorials, all of this human created content meant to provide value to others in hopes of monetizing the attention, or gaining reputation from that research or creation.
But without attribution or sharing of the proceeds, we can recreate, mimic, or even pull that exact content back out of the generative models. What does that mean for AI models? What does this mean for copyright? And is the only solution in the violent hand of the state, or is there a technological or cultural solution to this technological problem?

It can be argued that Open AI has become the ultimate middleman, that never even sends its users to the content that makes its product valuable to begin with? In that sense, is OpenAi a breakthrough...or just a different kind of scam? Don't miss today's show.

"Overprotecting intellectual property is as harmful as underprotecting it. Creativity is impossible without a rich public domain. Nothing today, likely nothing since we tamed fire, is genuinely new: Culture, like science and technology, grows by accretion, each new creator building on the works of those who came before. Overprotection stifles the very creative forces it's supposed to nurture."

Ai_024 - CASCDR May 09, 2024

"We're basically at a fork in the road. I think that there's a good chance we go the wrong way and you end up with a situation like China.

We need to build these tools that serve Liberty and not tyranny. And we need to design these systems correctly. And then on top of that, I think, as I pointed out earlier, you know, we have an opportunity to build a better product than the tyrannical systems, you know, now before, before you're in too deep. So we need to do that so that people aren't, aren't lured by that."

Are we steering towards a future where technology amplifies human potential, or are we drifting into a realm where control overshadows creativity? We are joined by the creator of CASCDR today to delve into a discussion that explores the role of Ai in our future and how we can utilize it to decentralize markets, service provision, and change the structure of productivity in a way that can bring it far closer to us and our needs. What does that future look like, and how do we build to get there?

Ai Read_006 - How (Actually) Open AI Wins Apr 05, 2024

"As I see it, humanity is at a turning point where we must either embrace a small handful of totalitarian super intelligences or move AI to the edge, allowing a wide diversity of machine intelligences to flourish in cooperation with an equally diverse set of human intelligences, forming a truly decentralized hivemind. Fortunately, there’s mounting evidence that open source models will be the ultimate winners."

~Hivemind Ventures

Our read from HiveMind Ventures today argues that the future of AI development hinges on embracing open-source models and decentralization to counteract the monopolistic tendencies of large corporations and governments. What if we already have the tools and foundations to create a genuine decentralized hivemind of human and artificial intelligences that change how we organize and progress. What if these tools are right under our nose, today? Would you want to know what they are?

Ai Read_005 - Here Lies the Internet, Murdered By Generative Ai Mar 21, 2024

"All around the nation there are toddlers plunked down in front of iPads being subjected to synthetic runoff, deprived of human contact _even in the media they consume. There’s no other word but dystopian."

~ Mike Hoel

What happens when the internet is so overrun with awful ai generated content, that it becomes too overwhelming to even find anything of value? And this is happening now, not in the future. What happens to a generation of toddlers who are watching incoherent, plotless, inhuman videos over and over again that are completely ai generated from beginning to end and are devoid of human meaning or depth of any kind? Millions of views on these videos poison the minds of kids all over the country while parents have no idea what the content actually is. Are we headed into a dystopia, and experiment with the minds of our children? And what on earth could we do to fix this? Find out in today's episode of Ai Unchained.

It's got to happen inside first."

Ai Read_004 - Building a Language Model (Part 2) Jan 25, 2024

"it’s important to step outside of the hype and critically-analyze what is and is not useful. It’s very easy to get caught up in “potential” applications, and allow the imagination to go all exponential on

you. It’s a very human thing. Turning that imagination into something tangible is what a business and an entrepreneur does. It’s our hope this report will be useful along that path."

~ Alek Svetski

Today we dive into Part 2 of the Bitcoin & Ai Industry Report to learn the intricacies and challenges of building an Ai model from scratch! We delve deep into the process, discussing the complexities of data collection, transformation, and the critical integration of human feedback.

Then to complete it, we take that knowledge to address many of the AI myths and misconceptions. Will AI replace humans? Is it going to take my job? Can I train my own AI? Is AGI around the corner? And much more! This is such a great episode for those who want to know and understand the process, of building AI...

Ai Read_003 - The Nexus of Bitcoin and AI (Part 1) Jan 18, 2024

There are so many myths and misconceptions around AI models. What they can do, how they are trained, even the fundamentals of how the data for them is even collected and formatted to make sense. The idea that we can "train our own model" by just feeding it a ton of conversation or notes is unrealistic, but why exactly is that?

Today we get into a 2 Part read which will be one of the most value dense we have covered on the show yet. It breaks down the entirety of the process of identifying the core value, and then sourcing, qualifying, and prepping the data, and then training, fine tuning, adjusting, and testing an AI model built from it, from beginning to end.

The Spirit of Satoshi project is an incredible open source endeavor and the team reveals tons of great details about the complexities and challenges of building an LLM, as well as the incredible work they are doing in building novel tools for crowdsourcing the hardest part of the process, and of course, how Bitcoin and Lightning enable better tools to make this all possible.

Ai_012 - A Big Leap Forward for Local LLMs Jan 05, 2024

The models, the tools, the implementations, everything is moving incredibly fast.

But a very interesting trend that I've been seeing, is that the open source benchmarks are improving just slightly faster than the closed source alternatives. Slowly but surely, they are catching up.

The day may come where the open source models are the best models, the ones with the greatest number of tools, and the largest variety of implementations, because naturally they're open and available for everyone to work on.

There have been numerous new developments on running models more efficiently, running larger models on even smaller devices, and doing so with less power and computational overhead, as well as a new advancement in one of my favourite open source models, which may just be a big leap forward for how these are going to evolve moving forward. And that is what today's episode of AI Unchained is all about.

A big leap for local LLMs.

Ai_011 - The Fears of Ai Dec 22, 2023

Ai is a powerful tool, and thus, necessarily comes with incredible risk. It could obsolete millions of workers, taking jobs and productive capacity away from humans and consolidate it into corporations. It could make the average individual too dangerous, putting incredible power into the hands of bad people. It may even present an existential threat to humanity, a veritable nuclear bomb, made available to everyone in the world...

What could all of this mean? Doesn't it suggests we need to tightly control, license, and scrutinize access to these base tools? Or is there an underlying philosophy exposed by these fears, and a more prudent, and honest course of action? find out in today's Ai Unchained episode!

Ai Read_002 - A Coder Considers The Waning Days of the Craft Dec 07, 2023

"Coding has always felt to me like an endlessly deep and rich domain. Now I find myself wanting to write a eulogy for it."

~ James Somers

Today we dive into an amazing piece and such an important perspective on the future with Ai. With GPT being able to code with ease, so many tasks and projects that would've taken hours before. Where the "so-so" programmer can now build nearly anything with an Ai partner, what is to come of the future of coding? Should we be celebrating... or is a eulogy in order?

Ai Read_001 - A Gentle Introduction to Large Language Models Nov 17, 2023

"Our first instinct when interacting with a Large Language Model should not be “wow these things must be really smart or really creative or really understanding”. Our first instinct should be “I’ve probably asked it to do something that it has seen bits and pieces of before”. That might mean it is still really useful, even if it isn’t “thinking really hard” or “doing some really sophisticated reasoning”. We don’t have to use anthropomorphization to understand what it is doing to provide us a response."

~ Mark Riedl

Today we dive into a great piece from Mark Riedl attempting to demystify ChatGPT and large language models. Are they thinking? do they understand reason? Can we even understand what is happening inside these intelligent machines or have we created something we cannot control?

What if the truth is far simpler, and actually easy to understand? And we can cut through all the hype, fear, and confusion, to get at the heart of what this technology really is, and what an incredible tool it can be.

Don't miss this incredible piece.

Ai_007 - Global Markets for GPU Power with Christopher David Sep 30, 2023

What if we could mitigate the enormous centralizing effects of the massive server farms and huge corporate entities, by pooling the GPU power of the millions of users and tinkerers who have unused or regularly idle computational power, into a decentralized marketplace for buying and selling Ai execution, and we could power it all with instantly settled sats over lightning?

It just so happens that we can, and this ambitious project is being brought to life with GPUtopia. Chris David from the project joins us today to break down the vision and how they hope to play a part in the decentralized future of Ai.

Ai_005 - Ai, Fiat Incompatible with Kody Low Jul 04, 2023

"So we had built this for a while, but because API calls are basically free, there really wasn't a good match for it. There were some good matches for it and people would do it, but as they were doing it, it was like 'I can do it this way, but I can also do it with dollars.' This is kind of a really interesting paradigm when it comes to Ai stuff is that there's basically 3 or 4 different aspects of Ai that make it so you cannot use credit card relationships to solve the monetization problems there. But you can with Bitcoin and Lightning as it exists today, not requiring any changes to the protocol..."

~ Kody Low

Today we dive into an incredible conversation with Kody Low from Fedi, who is hosting the Ai4All hackathon and believes he has found a solution to an increasingly huge, and seemingly impossible problem within Ai, that you can no longer distinguish human from robot online. What happens when Ai can create an infinite number of new identities? Is this the end of the open internet? find out in this awesome episode.

Ai_004 - Bias, Ai's Best Feature with Aleks Svetski Jun 29, 2023

Today we follow up from #002 with Alek Svetski to get him back on and digging into the open, community project they are releasing, the Spirit of Satoshi. They are exploring the capabilities of LLMs in combination with a data store in scaling one-on-one education that explores a topic or idea through a lens of explicit bias. Can we instill a variety of genuinely different worldviews and perspectives into Ai from which to test our understanding of the world? Svetski thinks we can. Hope you guys enjoy this one!

Ai Read_000 - Google "We Have No Moat..." Jun 14, 2023

"These contributions were pivotal in the image generation space, setting Stable Diffusion on a different path from Dall-E. Having an open model led to ⁠product integrations⁠, ⁠marketplaces⁠, ⁠user interfaces⁠, and ⁠innovations⁠ that didn’t happen for Dall-E. The effect was palpable: ⁠rapid domination⁠ in terms of cultural impact vs the OpenAI solution, which became increasingly irrelevant. Whether the same thing will happen for LLMs remains to be seen, but the broad structural elements are the same."

~ Anonymous Google Employee

While I wasn't sure whether I would bring the "read" format to this podcast, there was just too much great material to cover and I felt I would do a disservice if I didn't make it available for the audience who wants to dive into this stuff with me fully, rather than be satisfied with a summary. So I felt the best option for a flagship read, was the article that finally tipped me over the edge to start Ai Unchained. A leaked document from a Google employee seeing the trends and compounding effects of the open source Ai movement, titled "We Have No Moat, and Neither Does OpenAI." Get ready for a great read, and the shows first Guy's Take...

Ai_003 - The Dark Side of Ai with Alex Lewin Jun 10, 2023

Ai may be able to make us vastly more productive, far more creative, and orders of magnitude more dangerous. As Ai moves into the realm of creating hierarchies of tasks to accomplish larger goals, combined with the unparalleled scalability of its execution, a broad, self-spreading and malicious Ai becomes frighteningly more possible by the day. Like a wildfire burning out of control, what could be the consequences, how bad could a hypothetical scenario get, and what, if anything, can we do about it?

Ai_002 - Bias & Truth in AI with Aleks Svetski May 26, 2023

"This is the first time we've interacted with anything other than a parrot that can string together a coherent sentence. And it sounds stupid, but it's actually true. So we are anthropomorphizing, we are projecting our own consciousness onto this thing, and we are immediately imagining Terminator, Minority Report, God knows what else we are imagining - the Ray Kurzweil's of the world - we're imagining that all of a sudden, that's it, we unlocked it, basically we have discovered God. We did it. To me that's such a mix of naivety, ignorance, and arrogance that it's not even funny."

~ Aleks Svetski

We have an awesome conversation kicking off episode 2 of AI Unchained today with Aleks Svetski, who is currently building a not-yet-public project in the AI world. He brings a very unique perspective that tries to bring back a bit of perspective to the imaginations gone wild on the world ending possibilities of AI. What is the truth of it? And can we instill "truth" in these machines? Can we make them "objective and unbiased?" Or is there something both inherently foolish and presuming in even the attempt of such a thing, that we can prevent making the same mistakes of the past. Don't miss this crazy conversation.
